I was thinking about learning on an Pono chambered acacia electric uke. I already have used Kala spruce top I'm using but I live in an apartment and the neighbors have voiced their concerns about hearing it. So I'm considering the Pono hoping unplugged it would be good enough to practice and learn on. If and when I jam with somebody I could plug into an acoustic amp. Anybody doing this already? Opinions and thoughts would be appreciated. I'm looking at the Pono because of the plugged in sound sample on their site.
